(Novopress.info) TORONTO, CANADA March 7, 2006 – The Catholic Civil Rights League (www.ccrl.ca) today expressed disgust at the publication of a cartoon in the University of Saskatchewan student newspaper “The Sheaf” depicting Jesus engaged in oral sex with a pig. The cartoon, which appeared in The Sheaf’s March 3 edition, raised the ire of many in the Saskatoon area and caused the editor-in-chief to tender his resignation.

“While we’re relieved that the university’s administration has condemned the cartoon, we find it ironic that this same newspaper devoted a four-page spread to its decision not to print the Danish anti-Muslim cartoons that are at the centre of an ongoing, global controversy about freedom of the press,” said CCRL president Phil Horgan.
